Does anybody else get pissed ?

Question

I called my doctors office and I spoke to my nurse trying to explain this ongoing headache I've had for three days and the swelling I have that never goes down and she just brushed it off and told my to keep my feet up and I'm just like bitch I'm trying to tell u I've been laying down cuz of this headache and I'm still swelling my blood pressure was 126 over 86  and she told me that it's pretty normal to have these symptoms and I can wait it out till my appointment on Monday I don't get headaches that last 3 days so this is not normal to me at all

Answer

Those are ALL signs of preeclampsia. You need to be seen

Answer

If your blood pressure is normal then you may be dehydrated or maybe ate too much sodium. I ate Thai  food from a place I eat at ask the time but during pregnancy it made me swell up and get a headache. Canned foods did the same to me, even canned beans and soups that are normally fine for me until the end of pregnancy. I also had preeclampsia my most recent pregnancy but my blood pressure was wayyy higher than yours.

Answer

If you call after hours an actual Doctor should call you back instead of talking to a nurse. Maybe try that and get the doctors opinion.

Answer

My nurse is the same way I gave up calling because now they don't answer phones goes to voice mail takes 3 to 5 days to hear back

Answer

I do!! I've had the worst back/rib pain and nothing helps it. I'm just like this can't be normal lol. But they always say it is and won't help me on anything to do about it! Tylenol does nothing. I feel you.
